1.8 mondeo endura diesel engine

Ryan_3 · 25-03-2010, 02:59 PM

would it fit straight in a mk4 escort? it currently has a 1.1 petrol.

would I be better off fitting the old 1.8 diesel? and how will I know if its the 55 or 75 bhp? thankx!

dont worry about the bhp - its a diseasel so throw some veg down its neck and enjoy some cheap motoring

Look up, I think its Mark Stewart, he converted his 1.1 fiesta to TD. Should be similar for you. Good luck.

R4N S S · 25-03-2010, 04:35 PM

dont forget a suitable fuekl tank, swirl pot and fuel pump

fuel lines may need loking at too.

yeah that too. Just confused if I better fit the old diesel or the mondeo one

R4N S S · 25-03-2010, 05:34 PM

im pretty sure the 1.8 endura engine was used in the fiesta too.

cant remember what my old fiesta had but i think it was a 1.8 endura lump. That car is for sale if you want it and it will be cheap as the body is fucked and the turbo has blown.

Its got a new diesel pump on it tho as i put that on just before i sold it to my mate.

Ryan_3 · 25-03-2010, 05:53 PM

will be interested mate but take a look at my location

R4N S S · 25-03-2010, 05:59 PM

yeah i kinda figured it would be a bit far for you but my mate needs it off his drive

you could have the whole lot for less than a couple of hundred quid and will include everything you need.

or find a car local to you which would be easier for you

Ryan_3 · 25-03-2010, 06:03 PM

yeah it will be cheap, but to get it over here it wouldnt be worth it unfortuantely

thankx though

anyone has more opinions on this?

R4N S S · 25-03-2010, 06:06 PM

your best bet is to look for approx 2000 fiesta 1.8td - some of these will have aircon too. Get a cheap one and sell off all the rest

Ryan_3 · 25-03-2010, 06:09 PM

yeah it is a good idea, but im on a reaalllyy tight budget lol so cant afford to buy the car, and here, they wont go cheap

ronf42 · 25-03-2010, 06:54 PM

got one of these engines in my works transit connect, 32k on the clock, but it drives like it has done 132k. looking at the state of the steering wheel it would suggest it is above 100k anyway. Is there any point of adjusting the boost anf fuel pressure. if so how much does the fuel pressure need to be turned up by

Ryan_3 · 25-03-2010, 08:43 PM

anyone?

Ryan_3 · 26-03-2010, 03:34 PM

??

R4N S S · 26-03-2010, 03:49 PM

i am pretty sure the 1.8 endura engine will fit straight in but you may have to check which mounts to use - put it this way - if it fits in a fiesta engine bay it will have loads of room in an escort

Ryan_3 · 26-03-2010, 03:54 PM

yeah it will fit, but I im asking if its ALOT of work to do lol

mackers · 26-03-2010, 04:04 PM

Thats the link I was talking about, just buy the engine and get it done. It will be better than your 1.1 and you can play around with intercoolers and boost ect.

CosworthGuy · 26-03-2010, 04:13 PM

i'd have thought you'd use the same mountings that came from a 1.8 d that these cars came with. Any gearbox out of a mk 4 will fit too. Easy

Ryan_3 · 26-03-2010, 04:17 PM

so just need a late mondeo engine and same mounting as the old diesel
